Ben Hill Eviction Risk: Moderate , Atlanta

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.6/10. Severe burden reaches 30%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $33,607, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. At $1,132 a month, rents run 34% under what the rest of Atlanta commands. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10.

This is renter territory: 77% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Against the Fulton County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

Housing insecurity runs 24.2% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 17.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,437 filings here across 5 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2001 at 95.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 52.4% of renter households face a filing.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
